Solar power is one of the most talked-about home upgrades—but it’s also one of the most misunderstood. On this episode of All About Home Construction, we break down some of the most common myths surrounding residential and land-based solar systems and separate fact from fiction.

We discuss whether “free solar” really exists, the truth about leasing land for solar farms, and why not every roof or property is automatically perfect for solar. We also talk honestly about financing, electric bill credits, maintenance, durability, resale value, and whether solar truly makes sense for every homeowner.

If you’re considering solar—or just tired of the sales pitches and online hype—this episode will help you understand the real costs, benefits, limitations, and smart questions to ask before making a decision.

As always, our goal is to help you make informed, realistic choices about your home, your land, and your money.

You’ve probably seen the headlines lately: “It’s cheaper to rent than to own.”
But is that really the full story?

On this episode of All About Home Construction, we break down what those articles are actually measuring — and what they leave out. We’ll talk about why homeownership can cost more month-to-month right now, who is still buying homes despite higher rates, and why so many younger adults are choosing (or being forced) to rent.

We’ll cover:

• Why owning looks more expensive on paper today

• Who is buying homes right now — and why

• Who is renting, and when renting actually makes sense

• Short-term cost vs long-term value

• How time, location, and life stage change the rent vs buy math

• Why this debate looks very different in small towns and rural areas

Whether you’re a homeowner, renter, or someone trying to decide what’s next, this episode puts the headlines into real-world perspective — without the hype.
